The city of Woodstock and the Woodstock Fire/Rescue District are preparing to move its 911 dispatch services to the McHenry County Northeastern Regional Communications Center, NERCOMM.

In an effort to consolidate services, the state of Illinois has demanded McHenry County reduce the number of public safety answering points, PSAPS, otherwise known as dispatch centers, from six to three sites by July 1, 2017, according to Woodstock City Manager Roscoe Stelford.

Because of the mandate, the cities of Woodstock and Harvard agreed to consolidate the police dispatch services with McHenry Police Department, which will oversee NERCOM. The Lake in the Hills Police Department will combine with the Southeast Emergency Communications system in Crystal Lake, SEECOM, which encompasses Crystal Lake, Cary and Algonquin police and fire dispatch services.
